.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
These functions provide bounds checked access to a region of memory where data is being read or written\&. They are based on, and similar to, the
isc_buffer_
functions in the ISC library\&.
.PP
A buffer is a region of memory, together with a set of related subregions\&. The
\fIused region\fR
and the
\fIavailable\fR
region are disjoint, and their union is the buffer\*(Aqs region\&. The used region extends from the beginning of the buffer region to the last used byte\&. The available region extends from one byte greater than the last used byte to the end of the buffer\*(Aqs region\&. The size of the used region can be changed using various buffer commands\&. Initially, the used region is empty\&.
.PP
The used region is further subdivided into two disjoint regions: the
\fIconsumed region\fR
and the
\fIremaining region\fR\&. The union of these two regions is the used region\&. The consumed region extends from the beginning of the used region to the byte before the
\fIcurrent\fR
offset (if any)\&. The
\fIremaining\fR
region the current pointer to the end of the used region\&. The size of the consumed region can be changed using various buffer commands\&. Initially, the consumed region is empty\&.
.PP
The
\fIactive region\fR
is an (optional) subregion of the remaining region\&. It extends from the current offset to an offset in the remaining region\&. Initially, the active region is empty\&. If the current offset advances beyond the chosen offset, the active region will also be empty\&.

.PP
\fBlwres_buffer_init()\fR
initializes the
\fBlwres_buffer_t\fR\fI*b\fR
and assocates it with the memory region of size
\fIlength\fR
bytes starting at location
\fIbase\&.\fR
.PP
\fBlwres_buffer_invalidate()\fR
marks the buffer
\fI*b\fR
as invalid\&. Invalidating a buffer after use is not required, but makes it possible to catch its possible accidental use\&.
.PP
The functions
\fBlwres_buffer_add()\fR
and
\fBlwres_buffer_subtract()\fR
respectively increase and decrease the used space in buffer
\fI*b\fR
by
\fIn\fR
bytes\&.
\fBlwres_buffer_add()\fR
checks for buffer overflow and
\fBlwres_buffer_subtract()\fR
checks for underflow\&. These functions do not allocate or deallocate memory\&. They just change the value of
\fIused\fR\&.
.PP
A buffer is re\-initialised by
\fBlwres_buffer_clear()\fR\&. The function sets
\fIused\fR,
\fIcurrent\fR
and
\fIactive\fR
to zero\&.
.PP
\fBlwres_buffer_first\fR
makes the consumed region of buffer
\fI*p\fR
empty by setting
\fIcurrent\fR
to zero (the start of the buffer)\&.
.PP
\fBlwres_buffer_forward()\fR
increases the consumed region of buffer
\fI*b\fR
by
\fIn\fR
bytes, checking for overflow\&. Similarly,
\fBlwres_buffer_back()\fR
decreases buffer
\fIb\fR\*(Aqs consumed region by
\fIn\fR
bytes and checks for underflow\&.
.PP
\fBlwres_buffer_getuint8()\fR
reads an unsigned 8\-bit integer from
\fI*b\fR
and returns it\&.
\fBlwres_buffer_putuint8()\fR
writes the unsigned 8\-bit integer
\fIval\fR
to buffer
\fI*b\fR\&.
.PP
\fBlwres_buffer_getuint16()\fR
and
\fBlwres_buffer_getuint32()\fR
are identical to
\fBlwres_buffer_putuint8()\fR
except that they respectively read an unsigned 16\-bit or 32\-bit integer in network byte order from
\fIb\fR\&. Similarly,
\fBlwres_buffer_putuint16()\fR
and
\fBlwres_buffer_putuint32()\fR
writes the unsigned 16\-bit or 32\-bit integer
\fIval\fR
to buffer
\fIb\fR, in network byte order\&.
.PP
Arbitrary amounts of data are read or written from a lightweight resolver buffer with
\fBlwres_buffer_getmem()\fR
and
\fBlwres_buffer_putmem()\fR
respectively\&.
\fBlwres_buffer_putmem()\fR
copies
\fIlength\fR
bytes of memory at
\fIbase\fR
to
\fIb\fR\&. Conversely,
\fBlwres_buffer_getmem()\fR
copies
\fIlength\fR
bytes of memory from
\fIb\fR
to
\fIbase\fR\&.
